Suspension Clamp
Product Code : SCL-AM-11562
The Suspension Clamp is a precision-engineered laboratory mounting tool designed to suspend instruments, such as thermometers, probes, or pendulums, at a calibrated distance from a support stand. Optimized for secondary and collegiate science laboratories, it facilitates accurate data collection in thermal and mechanical experiments. It aligns with STEM and TVET standards by providing stable, adjustable positioning for complex apparatus assemblies.

Educational Benefits & Features
Feature: 360-degree swivel and lock mechanism.
Benefit: Allows students to orient suspended apparatus at any precise angle relative to the base, ensuring optimal alignment with heat sources or measurement scales.
Feature: Pressure die-cast aluminium construction.
Benefit: Provides a high strength-to-weight ratio and natural resistance to oxidation from moisture and common laboratory vapors.
Feature: Fixed-distance extension rod.
Benefit: Maintains a consistent 115 mm offset from the support stand, preventing contact between fragile glass instruments and the vertical rod during high-temperature experiments.
Feature: Ergonomic locking thumb screw.
Benefit: Enables rapid manual adjustment without external tools, reducing experimental setup time and improving student throughput in fast-paced lab sessions.
Feature: Integrated suspension hook.
Benefit: Facilitates a "point-contact" suspension for pendulums, minimizing mechanical friction and improving the accuracy of periodic motion calculations.
Curriculum Alignment
This instrument supports standard pedagogical objectives within the following global frameworks:
